BE TRUE TO ME

A love triangle has the whole town watching. Narrator Laura Knight Keating's sweet, wholesome voice reflects the character of Jean Custis, a proper upper-class girl, but a different girl lurks beneath Jean's façade. It's the summer of 1976, and Jean's family is vacationing at an exclusive Fire Island town. Newcomer Gil Burke has captivated the town, and Jean instantly falls for the older boy. However, Gil has eyes for outsider Fritz O'Neill, whose high spirit and gumption are admirably voiced by Eva Kaminsky. Gil and Fritz bond over their Southern roots, though their accents are notably absent. Keating and Kaminsky deliver alternating performances that lead from a perfect storm of unease, longing, and love to a shocking end. J.E.C. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2017]
